The reason why it was a big deal is because Prodigy (Mobb Deep) image was far different from what that picture depicted. I don't know why people are acting like people wouldn't respond like . Yes, he was a child in that picture, but unless you're completely new to diss records, you know its about the overall effect and how it affects the audience. If you put up anything that contrasts with the content in a rapper's music and diss them, people are going to react, and it is going to have the intended effect.
